I’ve decided to start brand new with my blog and just strictly blog about Japan because I love it so much! I’ve been to a few places in Japan so far:

. Tokyo . Yokohama . Fujikawaguchiko . Osaka . Kyoto . Kobe . Tsuruga . Fukui . Kanazawa . Shirakawa-go . Takayama . Shiga .  Hiroshima . Beppu . Fukuoka . Shimonoseki .  Kitakyushu . Kokura . Shizuoka . Nishiizu . Izu . Yugawara . Atami . Sapporo . Otaru . Niseko .

When I was planning for my first trip, I was overwhelmed because there’s so much to see, a ton of things I want to eat but limited time! I really wanted to maximize my time there so I planned everything in the most efficient way possible.

01

I made a whole PowerPoint presentation because there’s no better way to show my boyfriend what I want to do and why I wanted to go there. I save the screenshots on my phone so when I travel, I can reference back to the pictures and see my itinerary.

03

I use Google Maps and pin all the locations  I want to go so when I’m there, I click the icon and it’ll teach me how to get there. It’s super convenient and I highly recommend it! I’ve been doing some customized Japan trip planning and I’d love to share some of my adventures on my blog. =)

Fatty Pork

img_7633-1

Menya Musashi is one of the popular ramen chain in Tokyo. Known for their fatty piece of pork that melts in your mouth! The pork has an even layer of fat and it’s really tender. They serve thick noodles and if you’re a big eater on a budget, this is the best place for you. You can get small, medium or large portion of noodles at no extra cost!

They have locations in Shinjuku, Ikebukuro, Shibuya, Roppongi, Akihabara, Ueno, Kanda and Takadanobaba station. The one I went to was in Akihabara after I toured around the famous geek town!
